I am getting less than one Z per minute, today is a bad day to do zoltars...

Reporting live from Huntsville, AL. State of Emergency is in full effect, Currently 0.000 inches of snow. All schools in the area are closed. All daycares are closed . Looking like we may get a dusting (That will blow off the road) if at all. Unreal....

Yea, I am pretty sure HSV actively searches for reasons to close the schools.

Yesterday, our forecasts varied by site....from "a trace amount" to 8 inches lmaooo

Its unbelievable how unreliable the weather reports are. They were showing the radar on the news and no joke there was no snow for Huntsville, but they said "Just because you cant see the snow on the radar, doesn't mean its not going to happen" WHATTT?? This is going to be the "storm" that makes people complacent for the next real winter weather in our area.

everyday is a bad day to do them

 

[SweetiePuff]

I'm at a loss ... should I just remove/uninstall all my scripts and start fresh?

Every HIT tells me it's expired and reloads the page over and over until I get a PRE.

We have a local weather guy that does it old school instead of using computer projections. He gathers the info talks about high pressure, low pressure, where the dry line is...then gives his opinion on the forecast. He is the most reliable weatherperson I have seen in a long time. He even says when he doesn't know because things are unstable and can change.

Check your clock settings

 

[dobermom]

When I miss a zoltar, why is it never a website eval?

 

[SweetiePuff]

Check your clock settings

You are a GENIUS! I bet that's it because I have a lil notepad open for a bunch of lil things I want my husband to fix and 'clock' is #2!

I still think you're a genius. I fixed my clock, but still getting the error. I think I will just have to do a fresh reinstall of my scripts.

Have you done anything for that requester at all? Sometimes they rename studies and repost them.

everyday is a bad day to do them

It was a shot in the dark. I know sometimes that clock settings screw with expiration times on HITs and whatnot, so that was my first thought.

I capped on Websites and Used Car once on the same day. That was a good day. Today sucks though.

Not sure if this speaks to your issue, but I had a similar problem once. Turns out that my system’s clock was out of sync with real time. Reset that, and I was good to go.

Here’s hoping that you figure it out right quick.

eta: now I see that this was addressed before I hit post.
